I read plenty of bad reviews on here about NHS GP surgeries. Are there any good ones that serve SE15/SE22 area?

Extra points if the practice is known to managed chronic health/ pain conditions well. And bonus points if the practice (or particular GP) also works well alongside specialists within private practice. I say this because, in my experience, it can be frustratingly difficult to get NHS and private medical professionals to communicate with each other!

Not sure, but if you care to look up the various GPs and check what their 'speciality' is then that may be a way forward

I've been with the Forest Hill Road practice for over 40 years and couldn't have been happier with the service and care we've received. I've seen posts on here complaining about the wait for appointments but if you NEED to be seen urgently, they will always fit you in. My husband and I both have chronic conditions, and are always able to get appointments when we need them either booking ahead for routine consultations, or on the day if it's urgent. About a month ago, I rang the surgery for advice in the middle of the afternoon; a GP rang me back within 20 minutes, and gave me an appointment 20 minutes later, so I was seen in less than an hour from my first phone call. There has been quite a change in staff over the last couple of years, but the new doctors, as well as those who have been there for a while, all seem to be excellent.

Thanks all for your input


The Gardens and Forest Hill rd are outside the catchment area unfortunately.


Looks like I need one that serves SE15..... which 306 Medical Centre does, thank-you gumshoe. Good to know about repeat prescriptions

The DMC Surgery In Chadwick Road services SE15 but I do not have any experience with them. Melbourne Grove does too, and they are taking over the new medical centre at Dulwich Hospital combined with the Hambledon Medical Practice. Hopefully MGMP will improve.

    • The link below has further information suggesting that the shop demolition and square redevelopment is funded separately from the station upgrades, so will go ahead:   https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/peckham-rye-stations-step-free-upgrade-has-been-put-on-hold-82360/ 
    • Last time the toilets were out of operation in the station M&S we were all told to go out and up to Sainsbo! Certainly didn't close (I'm not suggesting that's the thing the library should do!)
    • Was it the two proxy votes that had swung it for Cllr McAsh in the first round? Interesting that he lost by two votes in the second. One wonders what the next move for Cllr McAsh is and whether the infighting will continue between the various factions within Southwark Labour?
    • Has anything emerged as to how the reported misinterpretation of rules ruling out proxy votes occurred, or what the specific fault was?  I've found and looked through https://labour.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Labour-group-model-standing-orders-2023.pdf, which afaics seems to be a prime relevant document.  It allows for local council Labour groups making minor amendments to cater for their council's particular form of organisation.  I've not seen any _explicit_ mention of proxy voting in the model SOs document itself.  I'm  attaching my notes on it.     re_Labour-Group-Model-SOs.txt
